PRAY FOR YOUR PASTOR.

"And I, behold, I have taken your brethren the Levites (Pastors) from among the children of Israel: to you they are given as a gift for the Lord, to do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation" (Numbers 18:6)

"The elders (Pastors) who rule well are to be considered worthy of double honor, especially those who work hard at preaching and teaching" (1 Timothy 5:17)

 Here in the United Sates, the Month of October is Pastors appreciation month. The work of a Pastor is one of the most hazardous job, a Pastor contend with forces seen and unseen everyday, and still have to operate under a tight budget with a coterie of volunteers. Pastors are Priest who stand between God and man offering sacrifices, they are called and appointed to watch over your souls. 

Pastors are gift to the church. A simple definition of a gift implies, something given voluntarily without payment in return, as to show favor towards someone. The value of the work of a Pastor is unquantifiable and yet lots of Pastors are suffering and even burning out. This month, show that you value your Pastor.
